Answer / sanjaygupta1981
UPDATE emp
SET sal=sal+500
WHERE hiredate IN (SELECT hiredate
FROM employees
HAVING COUNT(*)>1
GROUP BY hiredate)
The above query will update the records of all those employees
whose hiredate is same.

Hi Sanjay,
the query u posted is a bit wrong,1st u have to do group by
n then having clause comes n not vise versa. so the final
query will be as below:
UPDATE emp
SET sal=sal+500
WHERE hiredate IN (SELECT hiredate
FROM employees
GROUP BY hiredate
HAVING COUNT(hiredate)>1
)
Hi Srinu,
It doesn't matter whether u write count(*) or
count(hiredate),the answer will always the same but its
better to give count(hiredate) only as it is easier to
understand.

Hi Srinu,
you check the query once again..Query is not wrong..
UPDATE emp
SET sal=sal+500
WHERE hiredate IN (SELECT hiredate
FROM emp
HAVING COUNT(*)>1
GROUP BY hiredate
it'll give the same result whether we write count(*) or
count(hiredate)..
But I agree but its better to give count(hiredate)instead of
COUNT(*)...coz it is easier to understand.

count(b.hiredate)>1);
or
update emp a set a.sal=a.sal+500 where a.hiredate=(select
max(b.hiredate) from emp b where a.hiredate=b.hiredate group
